NCT03119883

Brief Summary

This clinical trial studies the utilization of glutamine by the bone marrow plasma cells from patients with monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) compared to multiple myeloma (MM). Results from this study may identify metabolic differences between pre-malignant and malignant clonal plasma cells in MGUS and MM, respectively. It may also allow researchers better determine the transition from MGUS to MM for the development of potential early diagnostic purposes of preventative strategies.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Percent enrichment of 13-Carbon in the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle intermediates within bone marrow plasma cells from patients with monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) and multiple myeloma

    Will compare the glutamine anaplerosis activity in bone marrow clonal plasma cells between patients with MGUS and multiple myeloma.

    Up to 1 day

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Percent enrichment of 13-Carbon in the TCA cycle intermediates within bone marrow plasma from patients with MGUS and multiple myeloma

    Up to 1 day

  • Percent enrichment of 13-Carbon in the TCA cycle intermediates within the peripheral blood plasma from patients with MGUS and multiple myeloma

    Up to 1 day

Study Arms (2)

Group I (biospecimen collection)

EXPERIMENTAL

EX-VIVO: After an overnight fast of 6 hours, patients undergo collection of bone marrow aspirate samples.

Procedure: Biospecimen Collection

Group II (biospecimen collection, glutamine, glucose)

EXPERIMENTAL

IN VIVO: After an overnight fast of 6 hours, patients receive 13-carbon labeled glutamine or 13-carbon-labeled glucose IV over 90 minutes. Patients also undergo collection of blood and bone marrow aspirate samples.

Other: 5-Carbon C 13-labeled GlutamineProcedure: Biospecimen CollectionOther: Uniformly-labeled [13C]glucose
